    Tottenham are in talks with at least one Italian club, believed to be Juventus, to sell record £30m signing Erik Lamela.
    Talks have opened with Galatasaray over £26m striker Roberto Soldado, 30, while other players signed in the 2013 spending spree - Paulinho, Etienne Capoue and Vlad Chiriches - are also available for transfer.

    Hopefully all of these transfers will drag on for as long as possible & recoup very little money.

    Something must have happened, surely, or it is a build up of the instances from last year.

    Being cited by John Percy (reliable Midlands football reporter for the Telegraph) as being due to a breakdown with the board.

    Leicester City Football Club has today (Tuesday) relieved its First Team Manager, Nigel Pearson, of his duties.

    The Board of Directors recognises the success Nigel has helped to bring to Leicester City during his two spells in charge of the Club, particularly during the last three and a half years. However, it has become clear to the Club that fundamental differences in perspective exist between us. Regrettably, the Club believes that the working relationship between Nigel and the Board is no longer viable.

    Leicester City’s owners, Vichai and Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabha, and the Board of Directors would like to place on record their thanks to Nigel for the considerable contribution he has made during his time with the Club and wish him well in the future.

    Khun Vichai and Khun Top remain wholly committed to the Club’s long-term development and to on going investment in a squad that will continue to be competitive in the Premier League. We trust that the Club’s supporters will recognise that the owners have always acted with the best interests of the Club at heart and with the Club’s long-term future as their greatest priority.

    Craig Shakespeare and Steve Walsh will take charge of first team duties while the Club begins its recruitment of a new manager. There will be no further comment until this process has concluded.

    So, person who runs the Leicester Twitter...when the news concerns you, titling it "BREAKING" is a bit gauche.

    Weird timing. Not what the fans wanted to see the club doing at this time of the summer.

    Guessing Pearson didn't take too well to his son's release.

    So, who's in the running?

    Allardyce
    Hiddink
    Moyes - (seems pretty happy, though)


    Any other shouts... I fancy Leicester to make a fairly good appointment and come out of this well off.
